Reforestation of bottomland hardwoods and the issue of woody species diversity Reforestation of bottomland hardwoods and the issue of woody species diversity

Bottomland hardwood forests in the southcentral United States have been cleared extensively for agriculture, and many of the remaining forests are fragmented and degraded. During the last decade, however, approximately 75,000 ha of land-mainly agricultural fields-have been replanted or contracted for replanting, with many more acres likely to be reforested in the near future. The...

Hydrogeology and ground-water flow in the Edwards-Trinity aquifer-system, west-central, Texas Hydrogeology and ground-water flow in the Edwards-Trinity aquifer-system, west-central, Texas

Two finite-element ground-water flow models were developed for the Edwards–Trinity aquifer system, west-central Texas, to gain a better understanding of the flow system; one ground-water flow model was developed at a large scale to simulate the regional system and contiguous, hydraulically connected units, and one model was constructed at a smaller more detailed scale to simulate the...

Hydrogeologic evaluation of the Upper Floridan aquifer in the southwestern Albany area, Georgia Hydrogeologic evaluation of the Upper Floridan aquifer in the southwestern Albany area, Georgia

A cooperative study by the Albany Water, Gas, and Light Commission and the U.S. Geological Survey was conducted to evaluate the hydrogeology of the Upper Floridan aquifer in an area southwest of Albany and west of the Flint River in Dougherty County, Ga. The study area lies in the Dougherty Plain district of the Coastal Plain physiographic province. In this area, the Upper Floridan...
